Hunt the Night The main storyline in Hunt the Night revolves around Vesper, an agent of a group known as the Stalkers. There are some clear Bloodborne inspirations to the story including a strong theme of crows and the fact that all of humanity is trapped in the ‘night’, an eternal nighttime where monsters roam

Cannon Dancer / Osman Review Cannon Dancer / Osman was created as a kind of spiritual successor to Strider and there’s definitely a lot of Strider’s DNA present in the game design, but I would say that is low-hanging fruit for comparison and would instead liken the game to the 1993 Super Nintendo game Run

PowerWash Simulator Steam Deck Review Hi, my name is Greg and I’m addicted to PowerWash Simulator. If you would have told me a couple of months ago I would be playing a game about cleaning dirt, I would have said you were mad. If you were to also tell me not only would I be
Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Review The Project Zero / Fatal Frame / Zero franchise is one of my personal all-time favourite series and has been ever since I played the original entry on my PlayStation 2 way back in 2002. Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is the fourth game in the series and was,
Chained Echoes Wearing its inspirations on its sleeve, Chained Echoes is an example of a retro-style RPG done right. 7 years in the making and after a successful Kickstarter campaign, we have a fantastically crafted game that pays homage to the genre’s classic titles while setting itself apart with a great battle system.
